Why should you hire a professional refrigerator pickup and removal service?
Like all appliances, refrigerators can only last so long. When it’s time to upgrade to a new icebox, it can be tricky knowing how to handle fridge removal.
Unlike other household items, old refrigerators and freezers are too large and complex to be handled like the rest of your trash. Even if you find a place to take your old kitchen appliance, you’ll still have to load it into a truck and haul it away.
How much does refrigerator disposal cost?
- Single refrigerator: Check the single item section on our pricing page to see if an estimated price is available in your area. We have locations all across Canada, so chances are, we’re in your neighborhood!

Frequently asked questions
How to dispose of a refrigerator?
If you’re looking to move or just upgrade your kitchen, you may find it hard to haul away a refrigerator on your own.
If you're wondering what to do with old or broken refrigerators, here are some ideas:
1) Contact your local waste management company
The local waste management division may offer to pick up heavy appliances such as old fridges and freezers and recycle them if contacted in advance. Typically, local government waste management will only pick up old refrigerators on certain days, usually only once a month.
2) Talk to your local scrap metal recycler
Old appliances consist of many recyclable metal parts and there are many local scrap metal recyclers who can use and recycle refrigerator parts. If you can lift and transport your old appliances on your own, see what scrap metal recycling companies near you might take it.
3) Contact your electric utility company
Some electric utility companies also offer refrigerator disposal services if you’re buying a new fridge. When buying a new fridge, check if your utility company or your fridge supplier will take the old one during the installation process.
4) Donate the refrigerator if it still works
If your refrigerator is in a good working condition, you can donate it to a local charity, retirement homes, or local shelters. You can deliver it yourself or some charities may pick up your refrigerator if it’s of a high enough quality and you can wait for their schedule to be available for the pickup.
5) Contact your junk removal company in your city
Local junk removal companies such as 1-800-GOT-JUNK? can help you dispose of your old broken refrigerator, fridge, freezers, refrigerant tanks, coolants, etc. for a fee. We specialize in efficient and eco-friendly fridge disposals and recycle them wherever possible. With our services, we can often pick up your old appliances on the same day you call, and we’ll even sweep up when we leave. If your refrigerator is in working condition, we will work with local charities and organizations to see if it can be donated. All you have to do is point, and we’ll handle fridge and freezer disposal for you. You won’t have to lift a finger!
How do I recycle my old fridge?
The easiest way is to find a 1-800-GOT-JUNK location near you and we’ll take old fridges and other unwanted appliances to the recycling center for you. The unit is dismantled and sorted into metals, plastics, and glass. Metals undergo crushing, shredding, and magnetic sorting to separate steel, iron, and valuable non-ferrous metals. Finally, all materials are cleaned and readied for reuse, minimizing the environmental impact of disposing of large appliances. This refrigerator removal process ensures every part of your unit is efficiently recycled and repurposed.
Don’t just take our word for it
Real customer reviews, typos and all ;)
Markel and Will came out and were amazing! They helped get rid of some hard stuff that we had trouble moving. They were super friendly and very professional and we would love for them to come back and help again when we need to get rid of some more junk in the future.
Antonio and Kevin were great to work with! They came out on a cold snowy evening and were so professional and kind! They were quick and hauled away items from our basement and other yard items. We were calling places to compare prices and they were the most responsive and fair company!
I needed some stuff picked up late on a Friday and 1-800-GOT-JUNK was able to make it happen in less than an hour. Holly showed up and loaded the truck up in no time at all. If you need something picked up with no hassle, give them a call.
